Engineer Scott Amron has pimped band-aids in a way I didn't even think was possible. His leather band-aids create fashionable first-aid from genuine cow skin.
The leather band-aids by Scott Amron come in a pack of 3 and sell for $18.
In Louis Vuitton print and straight up black, the band-aids seem more for show than for functionality, but they are cool looking.

Businesses may not need to release an entirely new line of products or introduce a new innovation to be financially successful; simply package it in a way that will be much more appealing to the masses.
